Abstract
Abstract: This article aims to outline the role and training of orthodontic auxiliaries in the UK, including the development of orthodontic therapists (OTs). The limitations and findings from a survey taken to understand the training and scope of orthodontic auxiliaries across Europe are provided and we reflect on the desirability and feasibility of standardized training for OTs, particularly in light of Brexit. CPD/Clinical Relevance: Orthodontic auxiliaries are important members of the dental team. It is important that the training, role and scope of practice of all team members are understood to allow safe delegation and supervision.
